Our priority for Christmas Day in Paris was to attend church service at the Notre Dame. We learned that the 11:30 service was what they call an international service. We got there about 30 minutes before the start of the mass. There was a line to get in, but it moved quickly and we found seats toward the front of the pulpit. They have flat panel screens in various parts of the church so the congregation could see it since so many large marble columns block direct view. The priest spoke at various times in French, Dutch, Latin and English. At the very end of the service, he said Merry Christmas in multiple languages flawlessly, including Mandarin!
They don't allow filming or photos while they conduct mass. I wish I could have recorded a video, the soloist gave us all chills; the acoustics are amazing. The organist played with emotion, it sounded like a piece from Phantom of the Opera, it was incredible.
After service, we found our way to the Latin Quarter, we really loved that section of town. There were many crepe stands around, and plenty of souvenir shops where we tried bargaining and sifting through interesting merchandise. Sainte Chapelle, across from the Notre Dame, was closed on Christmas Day, so we ended up seeing it the day after Christmas. Sainte Chapelle was built by Louis IX in the 1240's to house relics from the Holy Land including what is believed to be the Crown of Thorns and part of the True Cross, this small Gothic chapel is one of the inspiring visual experiences of Paris. Much of this is due to its stained glass windows, which essentially surround the entire upper floor. That section is breathtaking.

Test Anxiety
Most people worry about tests to some degree. It's normal. If worrying affects your performance, however, you should address the issue.
The first step in dealing with test anxiety is understanding more about its causes. This page contains information about test anxiety, and provides strategies to help lessen its effects.
Models of Test Anxiety
- Thinking about past failures and/or personal weaknesses while studying for a test.
- Feeling rushed or distracted while studying for a test.
- Thinking about parts of the subject you don't understand.
- Beginning the test.
- Feelings of uncertainty before or during the test.
- Negative self-talk (stinkin' thinkin').
- High levels of stress
- Inability to concentrate or study effectively.
- Experiencing physical symptoms of anxiety such as headaches, muscle tension and restlessness.
- Impeded thinking process or memory recall.
- Your score may not represent your actual knowledge of the subject.
Causes of Test Anxiety
Two issues surrounding test anxiety are preparedness and performance. Test anxiety can occur any time form the first day of the lecture up to and including the time you complete the test. A description of cause categories and suggestions for changing or lessening anxiety behavior follows.
This usually deals with the issues of time to prepare, and amount of information. These two issues, alone or together, can cast doubt on your ability to master the situation and information.
- Time
Feeling you don't have adequate time to prepare for the test.
Enough time (actual or perceived) was not spent studying for the test.
- Amount
Feeling the test covers too much information.
Not knowing how much and what information you should study.
Test anxiety due to performance typically stems from issues of evaluation and low self-confidence.
- Evaluation
Feeling threatened by the evaluation process.
Being unsure about what is being evaluated.
Worrying about comparisons to others' performances.
- Low Self-Confidence
Belief that other class members are more intelligent.
Lack of confidence with the subject.
History of low achievement in similar subjects.
Tips to Reduce Anxiety
- Prepare throughout the semester until you "own" the material.
- Find out as much as possible about the exam.
- Determine what information you need to cover, and divide your study load into manageable, low-anxiety periods.
- Over learn the material. Knowing the information lessens anxiety and allows you to answer questions more easily, even under stress.
- Decrease your stress level by avoiding last minute cramming; get plenty of sleep, exercise, and eat right.
- Think positively while preparing for and taking the test. Attitude has a surprising effect on your behavior and performance.
- Arrive early for the test. Get a good seat, settle in, and think about the material.
- Focus on the information, not on your feelings.
- Ignore students who are nervously cramming. Keep your own attitude positive.
- Practice tension-releasers and relaxation techniques. This will lessen the physical effects of test anxiety and improve your performance.

I heard about AARP's new Livability Index while listening to the Talking Headways podcast this past week. The mission of the Livable Communities initiative: "AARP Livable Communities supports the efforts of neighborhoods, towns and cities to become great places for people of all ages." The idea of this tool is much in line with the 8-80 cities concept: Can residents of all incomes, ages, and abilities thrive in our community?
Listening to the podcast, I learned that Madison, Wisconsin achieves the top livability score of any American city. The livability index contains a comparison tool in which a user can input three locations and arrive at a livability score for the three side by side, and the data is presented at the level of the census block so it is fairly granular and allows for comparison at the neighborhood level.
How does West Palm Beach stack up?
I chose Clematis Street, a location in Riverwalk, and a location on Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach as comparisons. Of these three locations, Clematis Street won out, scoring slightly higher than Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach, and four points higher than the Riverwalk location. It seems the distribution of most scores are within a relatively narrow range, so those few points matter.
Downtown WPB does well in the transportation and neighborhood categories. I would even wager that our transportation and neighborhood scores are undervalued, because the metrics are not giving us points for the impressive public transportation options we have downtown (trolley, Palm Tran, Tri-Rail, SkyBike) and jobs near those transit modes.
One disconcerting facet of the index is our poor score for Safe Streets. We are almost double the median US neighborhood in downtown for traffic deaths. This surprised me, but I suspect a combination of small sample size for traffic fatalities and the large amount of people walking contribute. Nonetheless, it's an area we clearly need to improve.
There are some fascinating map overlays available in the Livability Index tool. Downtown and the surrounding traditional neighborhoods are a clear outliers in number of daily walk trips per households, more than double the national average. We can also see the higher proportion of car free households in the Northwest and North Tamarind neighborhoods, all the more reason to support non-vehicular modes rather than designing neighborhoods for car dependency. The map overlays also show that we have a lot of work to do in reducing annual fatal car crashes, the top killer for in the age 2 -14 age group.
We should put a focus on creating a more multi-generational neighborhood and improve high school graduation rates, according to the Opportunity Score. This is the area where West Palm Beach is found the most lacking. As I've argued in the past, having public schools located downtown would be a tremendous boost to the livability of our downtown by attracting a more age diverse cohort of residents to live downtown and have their children attend a neighborhood school. Dreyfoos stands as an example of what could be, but Dreyfoos is a magnet school only and isn't open to downtown residents who live walking distance to it. We need real neighborhood school options for downtown residents. We also need more affordable housing options. The coming supply of rental apartments should help with this metric. Downtown cannot be solely an enclave for the wealthy.
One of the features I like about the Livability Index is the Policies and Resources that accompany each of the metrics. For example, in the Environment metric, it is suggested that communities adopt an Age-Friendly Communities policy, and the Resources tab links to various 'how to' documents.
These metrics, although useful, can't tell the whole picture of city prosperity as there are confounding factors for which reductionist methods do not apply. However, that isn't to say this data isn't helpful: as a quick snapshot, diagnostic tool, it's a very user-friendly look at what makes a livable city. It should help citizens and public officials measure where we are and chart a course toward a more livable city.
How does your neighborhood measure up in the Livability Index?

Hi all,
I just realized it has been a while since my last post, OOPS! I have been trying to post at least once a week, but sometimes there are so many others things to do. I've been spending a lot of time working on my website, my overall web presence as a brand, and trying to improve my SEO (Search Engine Optimization – more on this in another post). When I decided to open up shop, I had no idea what to expect from the business side. All I knew was that I wanted to sew fun and pretty things, and if I could make a little money doing what I love, then why not?
But it is a lot harder to "break into" the market than it used to. Here are some of the things I have learned so far about building a web presence.
Etsy used to be a marketplace for handmade items only, but in October 2013 they changed their policy to allow mass produced items.
What does this mean? Etsy is now more like Ebay, but with fixed prices instead of bidding, and much less sophisticated search options.
What does this mean for the handmade biz owners? We're getting lost in the flood of new shops listing tons of mass produced items. And, since the search options are not as clear cut, it makes it quite a challenge for a customer who is looking for a specific product to find what they want.
What can we do to help our customers find us? There are a few things you can do to help:
- Make sure your titles and tags are on point and use the best keywords that your potential customer may be using. The better these are the better change you and your ideal customer will find each other. You are allowed 13 tags – USE THEM ALL!
- Etsy shows the listings in order of most recently listed first. So, if you listed an item 2 months ago you will be pages and pages away from page 1. The best way to combat this issue is renew at least one listing from your shop a day. It costs the $0.20 listing fee again, but it may be worth it. For example, every morning I pick a few listings from my shop to renew, and every day those are the listings that get favorited the most. It is an investment, and while $0.20 doesn't sound like much, if you renew one add every day you spend and extra $73 a year. We all know that handmade items don't have the best profit margins, so you will have to ask yourself if you can afford this. But, think of it as a $73/year advertising budget.
- Promote your listings as Ads. Etsy just changed their policy on this one too, but for the better. In the past you could decide what your max weekly budget was, which ads you wanted to promote, and they would show it to a certain number of people based on the amount of money you chose to spend. Now, setting up the ad is the same, but Etsy only charges you if someone clicks on your listing. So, you only play if someone sees the ad, and clicks on it to go to your shop. Another benefit of this, anything you promote as an ad on Etsy also shows up as a Google Ad. 🙂
Facebook used to be a great place to connect with potential clients for free, but, just like Etsy, they have changed their rules recently as well, limiting your posts visibility on your Likers' timelines.
What does this mean? It seems like Facebook wants to make it difficult for businesses to reach their customers without paying for advertising. For instance, I have 300 page likes on Facebook, but when I post something I am lucky if Facebook shows it to 30 people. This means that not even 10% of the people who have liked my page see anything I post.
What does this mean for the handmade biz owners? Our customers and potential customers are not seeing our posts. And, we all know that the more your Likers see your posts and connect with you and your brand the better chance they will turn into customers or repeat customers.
What can we do to help our customers find us? Just like Etsy, there are a few things you can do:
- Find a few friends to like, comment, and share things you post. The more likes, comments, and shares any post gets, the more people Facebook will show it to. It's called "The Power of 3." Facebook uses algorithms to see how popular your posts are. The more activity, the more popular it looks, and the more people Facebook will "serve" it to.
- Another thing you can do is buy a Facebook ad. You can choose any dollar amount, even $1, choose demographic parameters (ages, gender, geographic location, interests) that you want Facebook to show the add to and let it run. This will greatly increase your reach, and hopefully you will pick up a few new Likes as well. For example, this week I ran a giveaway for reaching 300 Likes on my page. I boosted it as an ad and let it run for 2 days with a max budget of $8. Instead of 30-50 people (already likers of my page) seeing the post, 3,000 people saw it, 42 people engaged with the the post in some capacity (liked it, shared it, clicked on it, etc.), and I gained 8 new page likes of potential customers. Just like Etsy, it is a monetary investment, so you will have to decide what your budget is, if any, for advertising.
For a long time I was an eBay addict, but in recent years it has become overrun with overpriced items and millions of items from overseas. I completely stopped using eBay as a platform until recently. Ebay used to charge listing fees, just like Etsy, but they have changed many of their listing policies that allow you to list things for FREE under many circumstances and only pay the listing fee when it sells.
What does this mean? Free Listings = Free Advertising
What does this mean for the handmade biz owners? More exposure for your brand and your products, and, just like paid Etsy ads, anything listings you have in eBay will come up as a Google Ad (FREE ADVERTISING!!!)
What can we do to help our customers find us? List anything you have for sale in your other online platforms on eBay as well.
Here's an example of what I mean by free advertising. Below you will find a screen save of me doing a Google search for handmade organic children's clothing.
Now, I know my website is on page 2 of this particular Google search (which is phenomenal, considering there are 1,960,000 results in this query, but I am still trying to get on page 1), but check out the "Shop for" ads to the right. 3 out of those 8 are mine products, two from eBay, and 1 from Etsy. So, anyone who does the same Google search I did, even if they don't scroll to page 2 and find my website, they are looking at 3 of my products right here! The same thing applies for page 2. My web page is about halfway down the page, but 2 of the 8 pics on the right are my listings, one form eBay, one fro. Etsy.
Awesome, huh? Just a reminder, I do pay for the ads in Etsy, but only if someone clicks the link. I don't pay for the Ebay ads at all. 🙂
OK, I'll stop here, since I am sure your brain may hurt as much as mine does. In another (hopefully soon) post, I will regale my trials and tribulations in building a web site/store and what the H#LL is SEO and why doe we care?
Happy Web Shopping!

In most cases, the answer is no. Many years ago, before virtualisation really took off, dedicated servers provided a level of power, performance and guaranteed resources that was unmatched. Skip forward to today and the scaling nature of containerised products means they can often be more powerful at a fraction of the cost.
For example, our stock dedicated server from 2015 came with 8GB RAM and retailed for £120 per month. Today, our 8GB WordPress hosting container costs just £56.95 per month. Moreover, the WordPress product also comes with a range of managed features. A dedicated server is unmanaged and often under performs such an optimised platform.
We have a number of containerised products that are far better than a simple dedicated server. Depending on your website/s you might be interested in our:
Built from the ground up, this platform is optimised exclusively for WordPress. From specialized caching systems through to industry leading tools like staging and snapshots, this VPS based product is better than a dedicated server for most websites.
This VPS product runs the Plesk Onyx system and is designed for users who need to host multiple websites, with a simple control panel interface. Indeed the platform can host unlimited websites, out of the box on a 2GB container, and can scale upwards quickly as your site's performance requirements grow.
If you do have an extreme edge case requirement:

Rosemary Saneau - Hardcore Fucking and Fetish Pornstar who Loved Masturbating
Blessed with a slender body, beautiful hairy pussy and big natural tits, Rosemary Saneau modeled in the age of full pussy shots and can often be seen with her legs apart and her cunt lips open so you can see the pink flesh inside. Her huge areolas and hard nipples make the mouth water, as does the sultry lingerie this retro pornstar often wears when she's trying to make her male fans wild with desire while watching her performing in hardcore fucking or fetish shoots.

American model Rosemary Saneau (also known as Rosa, Rosita, Sue Ann and Rosemary Lorenz) began her nude modeling career in the late 1970s and was immediately drawn to bolder, naughtier poses than many of her contemporaries. By that point we were well into the era of explicit hardcore porn and the waning popularity of softcore content so she gravitated towards being a truly dirty girl, which is why there are so many incredible images of her pussy spread wide open and even a few of her masturbating with toys.
What most first notice about Rosemary is just how slender her body is, especially with a pair of glorious D (DD) cup breasts. The boobs were exceptionally perky and boast huge and mouth-watering areolas that dominate much of the surface area of her breast flesh. Her waist is slender and in the few shots that focus on her ass rather than her chest the butt looks tight and perfect with slim legs to match.
Rosemary Saneau AKA Sue Ann porn photos:
Glamorous babe of the Late '70s with big tits and natural beauty
This busty vintage sex star didn't shoot an enormous amount of content due to her short-lived career, but Rosemary Saneau was always glamorous and perfectly styled. Her shoulder length brown hair went through different styles, beginning with a feathered '70s look as she started and moving to a charming and shiny straight-haired look, an '80s perm, and a naturally wavy look for an outdoor photo shoot.
She did one black and white photo shoot, but the rest were in color so you can appreciate every facet of her beauty. She preferred a simple look where her makeup was concerned, going with light lipstick and just a hint of eyeshadow but otherwise keeping it natural. Her fingernails were natural and typically featured a lovely coating of polish in the pink family. Jewelry was generally limited to a simple necklace though she wears a beautiful watch in one set.
Her hottest work is a black and white set where Rosemary poses in a sheer black robe with a fuzzy black trim that hangs against her body in the most tempting way possible. This retro goddess looks truly perfect in those pictures and her hair and makeup is at its most glamorous in them too. Under the robe is a fuzzy black bra and sheer panties and on her legs is a pair of sheer tan stockings, making for a sensual striptease that ends with her hairy pussy exposed, her big tits in her hands, and her lips parted as a moan of erotic desire escapes them.
Rosemary Saneau AKA Sue Ann porn video:
Hardcore fucking in movie loops made this vintage slut a star
Rosemary Saneau wore some form of lingerie in most of her shoots, usually in the form of sexy stockings or a naughty pair of panties. No matter what she wears she always ends up with her big breasts and her hairy pussy exposed though she made sure to keep her pubic hair trimmed so her cunt lips could be seen clearly. As mentioned above, Rosemary modeled in the hardcore era and while she never got fucked in pictures she did get far naughtier than pinups from the '60s.
Movies were a different story though. Rosemary starred in hardcore movie loops where she got her hairy twat fucked hard. Some of her fetish pictorials include wrestling, catfight, enema, and bondage action. Also of note, she appeared in one pictorial together with famous retro pornstar Seka.
As a fan of vintage ladies you probably don't expect to see pussy lips or to watch as the girl pulls them open with her beautiful fingers and shows her pink flesh, but that's precisely what Rosemary Saneau loved to do, often making naughty faces of lust as she showed her private area up close and personal.

Dildo fucking and vibrator masturbation made Rosemary Saneau cum hard
This classic chesty pornstar took things to the next level with full on masturbation, sometimes fucking her pussy with a long dildo and sometimes using a vibrator for pleasure. You can even see hints of wetness between her lips when she plays. Though most of her content was solo, Rosemary did fool around with a girl once, including a fantastic picture where she's licking a perfect titty with her eager tongue.
In an outdoor shoot with a guy, you can see his head between her legs as he spreads her pussy lips with his fingers and extends his tongue to give her pleasure. That's hot, but the best part of that picture is the look of absolute joy on her face as a man is about to go down on her cunt.
By the way, you'll fall in love with these super sexy pornstars:
» Desiree West - Black Pornstar with Big Natural Tits who loved Raw Interracial Fucking
» Dominique Prevot - 1970s Hairy Teen with Puffy Nipples and Pouty Lips
» Elaine Everett - Beautifully Busty, Full Figured Plump Mom who Still Fucks in Her 80s
» Hanna Viek - German Hairy Pussy Diva with Giant Breasts and Cocksucking Skills
Indoor and outdoor work is included in Rosemary's work and they utilized lovely locations when outside. There's a sexy set with mountain views in the background as she's fooling around with a guy in the foreground. In another she's on a fallen tree with her legs spread and she has never looked more beautiful and natural than in those images. Her indoor pics were simple and primarily focused on her in the frame without any distractions.
Over the years, Rosemary Saneau's photos appeared in "Nugget" (1979), "The Breast of Cheri" (1980), "Wrestling Movie Review" (1981), "Fling" (1982), "Pub Presents" (1982), "Swingle" (1982), "Velvet Best of" (1982), "Forty Plus" (1987) and "Boobs and Buns Magazine" (1980) among other magazines.

So this next debate is a town hall event (i.e. a small, intimate setting where the candidates will speak to voters one on one). This is a real problem for Trump and a serious opportunity for Clinton.
During the Democratic primaries, a lot of Bernie people were bragging (much like Trump but without the white supremacy) that Bernie was attracting huge crowds while Clinton could hardly fill a small room. This was when I truly understood that anti-Hillary people do not know her in the slightest.
A few outlets like Vox have tried to get this point across: Hillary Clinton is a woman and her strengths are very different than a man's. She listens and connects with people on a more personal level. She is not suited to bellowing at large crowds and whipping them into a frenzy. She is, however, very VERY good at the small gatherings that were a staple of her very successful primary campaign.
Trump is a loud and obnoxious bully who thinks everyone is beneath him. Every time a member of the audience asks him a hostile question, his body language will scream "Fuck you, you peon!" Hillary will radiate understanding and warmth. Trump will project the exact kind of disdain for the little people that Americans deeply dislike.
A town hall setting will also play to Hillary's greatest strength and Trump's greatest weakness: Her incredible intelligence and his shallow ignorance.
Town halls are unpredictable and the questions can be from very far out of left field. This is not a problem for Hillary, who Chuck Todd ludicrously called "over-prepared" for the debate (because Chuck Todd is an insipid asshole). Hillary is so well versed on some many topics that catching her off-guard is nigh impossible.
Trump is a different story altogether. His profound ignorance continues to be a serious liability and in a town hall, it becomes a deadly threat. Trump is not a polished speaker that can vamp and spin a topic he doesn't know to make it seem like he does. He goes off on tangents and reveals just how little he knows.
Even worse, Trump will be itching for payback and his primary target seems to be Bill Clinton's infidelities. This plays well in large howling crowds but up and close and personal, we're going to see people cringe and that will be toxic for Trump.
Hillary got a tidy bump after her commanding performance and Trump's dismal collapse. After the next debate, that bump could become a small but insurmountable mountain for Trump.

One of my favorite things to do, is to save money..... I don't buy a lot of things if they are not on sale and I don't have a coupon. About a year ago, hubby and I were watching some news stories on the price of foods going up and that we as consumers should stock up as much as we can. So I took that to heart and decided that we needed to do that. I got hooked on coupons and stocking up my first trip to the store when I save 70% on my bill. Not only do I have a ton of food storage here. I help my Niece out every week and hubby and I send 4 boxes a month overseas to help out our men and women who are fighting to keep us safe. Without coupons and sales, I would never be able to do this. This weekend, we deiced that we needed to get a shelving unit so we can rotate and keep better track of what we have and this is what the shelf looks like now. I can't wait till we get another one..... As you can tell, we already need another one.
Yesterday, I did sit down for a couple of hours to stitch. I really love this horse silhouette but it sure is taking a long time to do. But only one color does make it super easy to work on.

Kelly Stevens is suffering from buyer's remorse.
The 29-year-old from Fargo, N.D., took out more than $60,000 in loans to pay for a bachelor's degree in fashion marketing from the Illinois Institute of Art. She was convinced it would allow her to open her own store or work for a major fashion company -- basically, to make more money.

During the Thirty Years' War, the Swedes occupied the harbour in the aftermath of their victory over the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
King Gustavus Adolphus landed there with his rein-forcements in May 1626. After the ceasefire of Altmark (1629) the Swedes retained Pillau and set out upgrading its fortifications. They constructed a star fort which remains one of the town's landmarks.
By the end of the 17th century, the town had expanded considerably. A lighthouse and a stone church were built. Peter the Great of Russia visited Pillau on three occasions, the first being in 1697, in connection with his Great Embassy to Western Europe. There is a statue of the Tsar next to the lighthouse.
After Pillau was granted Magdeburg rights in 1725, the town hall was constructed. This Baroque edifice, inaugurated in May 1745, was destroyed at the end of World War II.
Russian forces occupied the town during the Seven Years' War and built a small Orthodox church there. The event is commemorated by the equestrian statue of Empress Elizabeth (2004).
In June 1807 Pillau was stormed by Napoleon's Grand Army. No outstanding events took place during the rest of the 19th century. Records of a Scottish "Colony" established here in 1815 ap-peared in a 1890 Publication, although their authenticity is questionable.
The lighthouse was built up to a height of 31,38 meters, and the entire fortress was updated and rebuilt by the Prussians in 1871.
On 15 November 1901 the Königsberg Canal was opened between Pillau and Königsberg. Constructed at a staggering cost of 13 million marks, the waterway allowed vessels of a 21 foot draught to moor alongside the city or to sail to the capital of East Prussia without stopping at Pillau. This dealt a serious blow to the town's economy.
During World War II, Pillau had a U-boat training facility.
On 16 April 1945, the U-78 was sunk by Soviet artillery fire while she was docked near the electricity supply pier in the German port.
As the Red Army entered East Prussia, more than 450,000 refugees were ferried from Pillau to central and western Germany. Pillau was eventually captured by the Soviet Army on April 25, 1945.
After the war, this part of East Prussia passed to the Soviet Union, and the German inhabitants were expelled. The town's name was changed to Baltiysk in 1946.
In 1952, the Soviet authorities inaugurated a naval base of the Baltic Fleet at Baltiysk. As a result, it became a closed town: access was forbidden to foreigners or those without a permit.
During the Cold War it was served by the Baltiysk air base. The town, along with Kaliningrad, remains one of only two year-round, ice-free ports along the Baltic Sea coastline available to Russia.
Historical buildings in and around the town include the pentagonal Pillau Citadel, founded by the Swedes in 1626, completed by the Prussians in 1670, renovated in 1870 and currently holding a naval museum; the ruins of the 13th-century Lochstadt Castle; a maze of 19th-century naval fortifications; the Naval Cathedral of St. George (1866); the 32-metre Expressionist observation tower (1932); the Gothic Revival building of the Baltic Fleet Museum (1903); and an elegant lighthouse, dating from 1813. A stone cross, erected in 1830 to commemorate the supposed spot of St. Adalbert of Prague's martyrdom, was destroyed by the Soviets and restored a millennium after the event, in 1997.
This town was an important navy base under the Germans and has retained this role under
the Soviet and now Russian authorities. It is now the most Western point in Russia.
It is normally possible to take pictures within the town. At the harbor, most of the German archi-tecture has survived, including the lighthouse, the court and the secondary school. Looking across the canal on a clear day, it is possible to make out a Teutonic Castle slowing slipping into the sea.

It's one of those days- you are sad, dull and disturbed! You are in no mood to cook. And to top it all, I'm in the middle of shifting my home! So, half of my kitchen stuff are lying in huge cardboard boxes at the new house and half are here. But, I still dragged myself into making tea and some snacks by evening- only to find that the Gram flour is at the new house 😛 So, P had fetched it for me in a matter of five minutes. After all, he would do anything to get a cup of hot tea and Pakoras in the evening. I had the banana peppers for preparing the Chilly Friltters/ Mulagu Bajji/ Mirchi Pakoras. One of Kerala's popular road-side tea-stall snack, it's easy to make and tastier too. Try and let me know.
Green Color Bajji Chilly – 7-8 big ones
Gram Flour – 2 cups
Chilli Powder – 2 tablespoon
Asafoetida – 1 teaspoon
Turmeric – ¼ teaspoon
Salt – As needed
Water – As needed
Slit the chillies length wise with a sharp knife. Keep aside.
Mix Gram Flour, Chilli Powder, Asafoetida, Turmeric and salt in a bowl. Add water to this mix to make a thick batter.
Heat oil in a deep pan. Dip the slit chillies in the prepared batter and slowly drop them in the oil.
Cook both sides until crisp and golden brown. Drain on kitchen tissue.
Serve with chilly sauce or chilly chutney.
Chef Says: After slitting, remove the seeds if you do not want the fritters to be too spicy.
If you feel the fritters are spicy, dip in tamarind extract first and then in the prepared batter.
The batter should be slightly more thicker than idly batter. Else the flour mixture won't stick to the Bajji Chilli.
P.S: A friend of mine suggested that it is popular in North India too, except that there is some stuffing to the peppers. I am yet to try that!
P.P.S: Did you notice somebody eyeing me? She would have been wondering what I was doing with a big camera, a cup of tea and steaming hot Pakoras. In her Meow language, she did ask me to offer one 😛 Capturing her on my camera was the best that could happen to me today 😀

The Akashic Records are the past, present, and future knowledge of all things that have ever existed. It is a universal filing system of every thought, emotion, word and action since the beginning of time, encoded on the non physical plane- the ether. They have been referred to as the Cosmic Mind, the Universal Mind and the collective subconscious.
The word Akashic is derived from the Indian Sanskrit language meaning – sky, space or ether. In Hindu mysticism the Akasha is the primary principle of nature from which the four natural elements, fire, air, earth, and water are created.It is believed the people of ancient cultures, including the Indians, Tibetans, Egyptians, Persians, Greeks, Mayans, Chinese, Druids and Hebrews regularly accessed these Records.
The Akashic Records are metaphorically described as a library and are also likened to a universal computer or the 'Mind of God'. Within this sacred space is a recording of your soul's inception, as well as the possibilities of its future. The Akashic Records are referred to in virtually every ancient spiritual teaching.
Famous people known to have accessed the Akashic Records are Rudolf Steiner and Edgar Cayce.

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - INTRO-Verwaltungs GmbH, the group controlled by airline investor Hans Rudolf Woehrl, has formally indicated its interest in taking over Air Berlin AB1.DE, it said in a statement on Friday.
"The aim of the offer is to preserve Air Berlin as a whole and continue to operate it as an independent airline," INTRO said, adding the offer was backed by partners and financial investors, whom it did not name.
Woehrl made a name for himself in Germany's aviation world when he bought German airline Deutsche BA from British Airways — now part of IAG (ICAG.L) - for 1 euro ($1.17) in 2003.

Police stated that the driver of one vehicle smashed into the other car causing it to flip. She was charged with driving under the influence of controlled substances.
Both of the northbound lanes on 29 Lynchburg – from Kemper Street to Grace Street – were shut down for several hours. The police have not released the names of those involved.
We hope that the injured woman has a speedy recovery and gets out of the hospital as soon as possible. Unfortunately, she may be facing weeks, if not months, of recovery – depending on the extent of her injuries.
This accident illustrates the grave dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The best way to avoid this is to never drive after you have consumed alcohol or taken an illegal narcotic.

text: P. S. The hostess of Sistapower came to me at the last WCO after I had shared my 10 minute message on not falling for the devil's lie - a true story. I think God told her I had made up my mind not to seek audience again. I had said to God, ''this is hard. So unless you create avenues for me, I shall not seek to do it myself.'' Boom! God no gree. Bidemi comes to me and says, for as long as there are Sistapower gatherings, I have a platform! I covered my shame, recovered and said ''thank you.'' So, do attend this one or the next or the next. Because, by the grace of God, I will be there and I will share. So that you can learn from my own foolishness and/or be encouraged by my testimonies.

In today's hard economic times, everyone seems to be trying to find a high efficiency living. One way of accomplishing this is to create unique small house plans Philippines that work like Zen house design Philippines or window designs in the Philippines. When designing unique small house plans Philippines, it is crucial to softly plan out every sq . ft . of space for optimum utility and comfort. This technique must start with you--the homeowner.
Everybody has different wants and needs from their homes. It really is hard to argue that a competent home, when it comes to energy consumption, is not important to everyone. One convenience of unique small house plans Philippines is the fact they assist you to design with energy efficiency being a top priority. There are plenty of areas that can be focused on to boost efficiency.
One region which will make a big impact is doors and windows. A unique small house plans Philippines will usually have fewer doors and windows, which can be typically extremely expensive components of a house. So, by reduction of doors and windows, you could stick to budget. Windows and doors are also where much heat (or cooling) is lost, so by reduction of them you can use a smaller HVAC (heating/ventilation/air conditioning) unit, thereby being economical. In a unique small house plans Philippines, HVAC units can be smaller and more efficient also because they don't have to heat and cool a huge space. Insulation can also be upgraded at reasonable prices caused by a smaller space.
One of the most important things to keep in mind is how you will definitely use the space. Prepare yourself for things such as a home office, exercise room, or media room. Try to take into consideration an upcoming continuing development of your family, and whether you will need extra bedrooms. Finally, you desire to think about resale. We all build our dream home thinking it may be our forever home, but unfortunately, jobs, family, and desires change. So remember the fact that most people are interested in as a minimum a 3 bedroom/ two bathroom house. This will help you be able to catch the attention of a wider variety of people if and only if you need to sell.
Here are a couple of things to keep in mind when generating a unique small house plans Philippines:
1. Design space for multiple uses. A case in point is designing the outer edge of your kitchen island countertop that's curved, so it can be used as a dining room table.
2. Use pocket doors. Pocket doors can be used to great use in today's homes, especially for small houses. The usage of these space saving doors offer not only practical but will also an exceptional look. The space saved by not having a "swing" area for a door is amazing. Pocket doors are not costly to a builder to setup, but in a unique small house plans Philippines, they are able complete a improvement.
3. Situate stairs wisely. Because stairs can be a big space eater, they should be done as small as possible, yet still allow safe comfortable-size steps and space for moving furniture. Spiral stairs useless space, but they might be dangerous and hard to use. However, the storage space beneath traditional stairs is quite valuable.
4. Increase your ceiling height. It becomes an inexpensive way to make your spaces feel much bigger than they. A typical ceiling height is 8 feet, but if you increase that to 9, 10, or even 12 feet, you've gained a tremendous amount of space and visual appeal for a small amount of money. Then, add floor-to-ceiling cabinets for storage, and ceiling fans for air flow.
5. For two-story unique small house plans Philippines, here is another gambrel style roof. These are the roof styles so you see on many older barns. They enable considerably more ceiling and space than a typical roof peak.
There are a lot of innovative space-saving techniques and items accessible to homeowners. By performing all of your research and preparing in advance, you can maximize a small types of houses in the Philippines with pictures to fit your needs.

February 20, 2009 --People diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer may enjoy a better quality of life if they get regular exercise. One-hundred-seventy-five study participants in Philadelphia were asked about their current exercise habits, as well as their habits before diagnosis and during the 6 months after treatment.
Men and women who engaged in moderate activity for at least 150 minutes a week, or vigorous exercise for at least one hour per week, reported a higher quality of life than their less-active counterparts.
Regular exercisers also tended to report fewer depression symptoms.
The study is published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention.

Ilko Kucheriv Democracy Fellowship Programme announces fellows
Four professionals at independent democracy and human rights advocacy NGOs and think-tanks from the CIS region have been named recipients of an Ilko Kucheriv Democracy Partnership Programme fellowship.
This is the third year that PASOS is partnering with network members the Ilko Kucheriv Democratic Initiatives Foundation (IKDIF) and the Institute of Public Affairs (IPA) to offer the fellowships. The program, made possible with the financial support of the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), seeks to assist the advancement of democratic practices in transitional democracies.
Fellows work with the hosting institute for a six-month period or project co-operation and mentoring, and spend up to five weeks in the office of the hosting think-tank. Three of the hosting think tanks are members of the PASOS network: the Institute for Public Affairs (IVO), Bratislava, Slovakia; the Polish-Ukrainian Cooperation Foundation (PAUCI), Warsaw, Poland; and the Association of International Affairs (AMO), Czech Republic.
The fellowships also provide one-on-one, hands-on training with the host institute's experts as mentors. The goal is to provide a mentoring opportunity for an in-depth, on-site, and interactive experience in democratic transformation and protection of human rights.
The four fellows and hosting institutions are:
- Current state of play in MFA of Visegrad Four countries;
- Common challenges for foreign policy resorts in V4 and Ukraine
- Best cases of diplomatic service reform in Poland and other V4 for Ukraine
- explore a theoretical analysis of views of gender equality and the role of women in political and public life;
- develop a model of the role of women in political and public life;
- explore the features of social activities, professional activities and autobiographies of women who actively participate in the political life of their countries (Poland, Ukraine);
- make a comparative analysis of women who are taking an active part in political and social life in Poland and Ukraine;
- identify the features of women who are actively involved in political and social life in Poland and Ukraine, and analyse the dynamics of socio-political activity;
- develop recommendations for the development of gender equality in Ukraine.
- Options for EU to help people from vulnerable regions of southern and eastern Ukraine, and how co-operation with the EU and other partners will strengthen Ukraine's unity and reconciliation process.
- Evaluation of the position of Southern EU MS in relation to the conflict between Ukraine and Russia and delivery of recommendations on how to create policy cohesion with other EU MS.
- Options for a sustainable policy of support from the side of the EU tied to concrete reforms, and the necessary conditionality to boost confidence in their effectiveness on the side of Ukraine and the EU.
- Overview of Ukrainian media market with figures of audience share, budgets, ways of support and media property.
- Assessment of the media market in progress
- Representation of financial support models widespread in media all over the world and observation of how these models work in Ukraine.
- Conclusions on how to implement commercial models in Ukraine, and how to achieve their consolidation for stable development.
- Elaboration of the processes of state media privatisation, and the form of further development of the state media.
- Recommendations, drawing on international experience, on how to strengthen the role of existing self-control organisations in the media.
- Presentation of study to Media Ethics Commission, Independent Media Trade Union, National Union of Journalists, profile commission in the Parliament and other relevant structures.
The program is named after Ilko Kucheriv, a prominent activist in the Ukrainian civil-society movement who succumbed to cancer in 2010.
"Kucheriv worked to unite journalists, political analysts, politicians, diplomats and civil activists with radically different views through civilized discussion of the most poignant topics and problems in society," said Jeff Lovitt, executive director of the PASOS secretariat in Prague. "He aspired to make DIF a powerful analytical center that would produce original research and training programmes, and have an impact on politicians and public opinion across a broad spectrum of issues, including rights, security and democratic freedoms and processes. Our intention to honor his ideas and actions with this program so that others may take up his campaign for a cvil and open society."
Kucheriv was the founder of the DIF and personally contributed a great deal to the advancement of democratic ideas in Ukraine. In the early 1990s, he understood the importance of public opinion for the development of a civic society, and DIF was the first organization to make available the results of social research to the broader public and to train journalists in understanding public opinion polling.

Project Management
Course objectives and method
The objective of this course is to familiarize students with the concepts and techniques of project management in general and dynamic project scheduling in particular. Every engineer or economist will be faced with projects in her or his function. Some will act as project manager, others as member of a project team or as "customer" of a project. It is important to know the issues of managing and performing projects, as well as the techniques necessary to start and manage projects. During the course, the concepts and techniques of "dynamic scheduling" will be discussed, consisting of three main themes: baseline scheduling, risk analysis and project control. The sessions consists of theorical sessions, practical sessions, software exercises and case studies.
The following themes will be discussed:
- Project management introduction: Practical details and introduction to the Project Life Cycle and Dynamic Scheduling
Project scheduling without resources
- The PERT technique
- The Critical Path Method (CPM)
- Schedule Risk Analysis
Project scheduling with resources
- Resource allocation in projects
- Theory of constraints in project management
- Financial aspects in project scheduling
- Real-life cases (VMW and Westerscheldetunnel)
- Advanced topics in research (project scheduling) or guest speaker (MBA session)
Project Control
- Earned Value Management
- Earned Schedule
Course material
Slides: The slides are bundled in a book "Project Management" by Academia Press at a price of approximately € 12.00. The Vlaamse Economische Kring (VEK) or Vlaamse Technische Kring (VTK) will distribute these books among all master students on certain predefined days (see their website). Afterwards, the books are available at Story-Scientia (Sint-Kwintensberg 87, Gent).
Textbook: The textbook used in this class is titled "Project management with dynamic scheduling: Baseline scheduling, risk analysis and project control" and is an optional book serving as background literature supporting the class sessions and the slides. This book is published by Springer and costs more than € 100!. However, a cheaper version is available for students of Ghent University (around € 50). This book will also be sold by the VEK or is available at Standaard Boekhandel in Gent Kouter (at the reduced price). Students who still use the first edition of this book should look at the list of errors and corrections here. These errors only occur in the first edition of the book. If you have a second edition, no errors have currently been reported.
Online learning tool: PM Knowledge Center is specially made for students who follow the course and are interested in simple and easy-to-read articles on dynamic scheduling. You can also post a comment or ask a question on that site.
Software: The dynamic scheduling software tool ProTrack can be used throughout the course. A free version of the latest ProTrack edition is available to "Qualified Educational Users". All students who follow the course are considered to be such users and can request their free copy here.
University Contest
Part of the course consists of a groupwork (written paper and oral presentation). High quality papers will be selected for the University Contest, in collaboration with PMI Belgium. A jury of practitioners will select one groupwork if it is relevant for the PM community. In this case, the winners receive a time slot on one of the events of PMI Belgium, a monetary price, eternal fame and a nice reference on their CV. More information will be given in class. Click on the yearlinks to see the winners of the previous editions for 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014.
Session 3. Project Scheduling Game
In session 3, all students need to 'play' the The Project Scheduling Game (PSG). Since the PC room is too small for the whole group, the group of students will be divided in two subgroups. Check Minerva for more details to which group you belong. Here you find the schedule for the two groups (be on time, we have a strict schedule):
- Students Business Engineering (Oct. 12, 2016): see schedule Minerva
- Students Civil Engineering (Feb. 24, 2015): see schedule Minerva
Session 6, students Business Engineering (Nov. 9, 2016): In session 6, different types of exercises will be discussed. In a first run, some manual exercises will be made in class using the techniques we discussed in previous sessions. In a second run, a computer exercise will be given that builds further on the Project Scheduling Game of session 3. It is not sure yet whether we will run this computer exercise, so pay attention to what I say in class. If I don't mention anything, ignore it, otherwise, make sure that you bring your own laptop to class (fully charged, both PC and Mac are welcome, 1 computer per two people) and download the PSG Extended (see "downloads" below) in advance.

Throughout the years, I noticed that student quickly send emails to lectures with various question on the content and practical arrangements of the course, and expect answers within a few second. While I mostly try to answer emails as soon as possible, it is sometimes practically impossible to give individual answers to each student (too many). Moreover, some of the questions always return, which has led to this FAQ overview with the most common question. Not all questions are relevant, but they might help you.
Question: How should we study the course to be prepared for an excellent result?
Answer: Attending all class sessions, study the slides and read parts of the book are helpful methods to be better prepared for the exam. In order to give you a full overview of how to study this course, you can download a brochure "How to study the course PM" from www.or-as.be/downloads.
Question: Is the book "Project Management with Dynamic Scheduling" mandatory?
Answer: Nothing is mandatory, but is is highly recommended. The book is written especially for the students of this course. Although I will not strictly follow the individual chapters, it contains all details for all sessions. I therefore believe it is a helpful tool to study the course content and learn more about the wonderful world of Project Management. The book is too expensive to buy on the internet, so make sure you buy it at a reduced price (only for my students).
Question: I want to learn more about Project Management. Do you have extra material beyond the scope of the course.
Answer: Thank you for your interest. We have much more. More than you want. More than you can digest. You can visit our website, or alternatively, you can freely download an overview book "The Art of Project Management" on the bookstore website of OR-AS?
Question: Can you put the slides, exercises or case studies online?
Answer: No. Most of the material is copyright protected since it is used in various commercial programmes. Since I believe that the material is interesting for master students too, I have chosen not to adapt the material by removing the commercial stuff, or by changing the case studies into useless exercises. The advantage is that you get full access to material that is also used in a more commercial training. The drawback is that the material is only available on hard copy. Note however that a lot of material is freely available online (see previous questions)
Question: Is it required to follow the teaching sessions, or can we just learn everything on our own, and solve the exam without the teaching sessions?
Answer: As a lecturer, it is impossible to admit that the course can be studied without the lectures, so I believe that this question should not be asked. Of course it is necessary to follow the class sessions. It's crucial for your understanding (if I don't believe in the importance of the teaching sessions, who will?), it allows you to participate in the business games and case studies (class evaluation) and not attending the sessions is bad for your health, causing serious injuries and risk for permanent damage. Or in short: Yes.
Question: I cannot attend all sessions. Can you please tell me when it is really necessary to attend?
Answer: No. All sessions are interesting, and you are expected to be there.
Question: I cannot attend the business game session (I receive this quesion a lot from student who follow the course as a part time student). Is there a way to run the game on my computer or to have an individual session?
Answer: No, there isn't. The business game session is held in the computer lab, and consist of an introduction, a computer run and a feedback session. Be there if you want to experience the lessons to learn. Otherwise, you can read the chapter in the book to have an idea of how exciting it was.
Question: I haven't attended the first class. You explained the details about the group assignment in this session. Can you please explain it again?
Answer: No. I receive this question a dozens of times and I cannot explain it to every single student separately. I assume you can check with your colleagues of your group what I really except. You should describe to a group via Minerva. Good luck with the group assignment!

A Personalized Learning Journey Where Students LEARN by BEING
Navigate Scenario: LearnScape for Criminal Justice is a scenario-based learning tool that immerses students in real-life situations to give them the opportunity to learn more about applying the amendments correctly in a contextualized, authentic environment. This "virtual internship" introduces course learning objectives in a way that is relevant, engaging, and promotes better learning outcomes. Through the use of photo-realistic environments, an interactive technology overlay, and a seamlessly integrated "natural assessment" infrastructure, Navigate Scenario: LearnScape for Criminal Justice "brings learning to life".
Navigate Scenario: LearnScape for Criminal Justice includes three sequential Episodes that each take roughly 15-20 minutes to complete. Available via a web browser, students can access these modules anytime, anywhere and can replay them multiple times in order to master the material. Download an informational flyer.
Story Background
The city has seen a rash of crime in the past two years. In an effort to convict more offenders, the police have emphasized limiting procedural mistakes. In this LearnScape, another crime has just been committed. You are the Sergeant in charge of two Patrol Officers who responded to the scene of this robbery. Have you mentored them well? Have they avoided mistakes during the preliminary criminal investigation and followed proper criminal procedure protocols? Can you help them learn from any mistakes they have made?
Episode 1: Identification
It is up to you to train two rookie officers in correct criminal procedure. After watching footage of a recent attempted robbery, you will review how the officers handled the suspect ID - lineups, admonitions, and witness interviews. you will find their errors, give them feedback, and even create a sample Photo Linuep at their request.
Episode 2: Miranda
Miranda rights aren't as straightforward as they seem on TV. After learning about all things Miranda from your Lieutenant, you watch footage of the officers "Mirandizing" the suspect. It's up to you to catch all their errors, regardless of how subtle they are. Being a good mentor also means responding to Miranda "what if" questions from the officers, because no two situations are alike, When it's time for your trainees to interrogate the suspect, you watch the live feed and cmment on their performance. Can they get the suspect to crack while keeping the statements admissible?
Episode 3: Search and Exclusionary rules
It's one thing to seize evidence, it's another to make sure it's admissible in court. This episode is all about creating valid search warrants and executing them properly. Did your officers provide enough probable cause in the search warrant? Did they execute the search properly or will the evidence be inadmissible? Watching footage of their search, you give your trainees feedback and you cover all the scenarios that can occur during a search. At the end of the episode, you review the complete case with your officers and hope that they (and you!) have gained valuable experience on correct criminal procedure.
This immersive learning tool is an ideal, interactive enhancement to Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure, Introduction to Policing, and Interviewing courses.

eSports sport developer Valve Company suggests it will no extended permit 3rd-celebration gambling web-sites to make use of its Steam market.
In a recognize posted to the Steam internet site on Wednesday, Valve's Erik Johnson wrote that making use of the eSports market "to run a gambling business is not permitted by our API nor our consumer agreements."
Johnson said Valve, the builders behind online games like CounterStrike International Offensive (CS:GO) would "start sending notices to these web-sites requesting they stop functions via Steam, and further pursue the matter as important." Johnson warned players to "consider this information as they take care of their in-sport item stock and trade activity."
Johnson stressed that Valve had "no business relationship" with these 3rd-celebration gambling web-sites and had "never received any income from them." Johnson mentioned that Steam "does not have a technique for turning in-sport products into real-environment forex."
That final component is real, but real-environment forex does movement into the technique, and Valve takes a reduce of the gross sales of virtual products offered by means of Steam, building it an vital contributor to Valve's base line.
Valve was hit with a course motion lawsuit final thirty day period by a player who accused the firm of facilitating the progress of "illegal online gambling enterprises" such as pores and skin betting web-sites, in which players wager on the consequence of eSports matches making use of virtual in-sport items as forex.
Other web-sites take pores and skin betting to its sensible summary, allowing for players to gamble real funds on the random material of pores and skin 'loot crates'. One of these web-sites, CS:GO Lotto, was not long ago embroiled in scandal immediately after it was revealed that two popular eSports players who shilled for the internet site in YouTube videos really owned CS:GO Lotto. The pair have because been added to the course motion lawsuit in opposition to Valve.
There are evident parallels in between Valve's situation and daily fantasy sporting activities operators. Both equally have been fortunately reaping the gains – albeit indirectly, in Valve's scenario – of a gambling activity of questionable legality right up until a scandal broke. It continues to be to be viewed no matter whether Valve's endeavor at damage handle will offer it any protection from opportunistic politicians, who are probably cranking up their outrage equipment as we speak.
